Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

Welcome to N’Orleans, the Big Easy. Just saying its name conjures up images of sultry Jazz and melancholy Blues music, the rich scent of Creole and Cajun food, the liveliness of Mardi Gras, and the mystery and dark mysticism of Vaudun. It is a city with a rich cultural heritage and history with the Preternatural, going back to well before it was founded in 1718. Hell, the Preternatural is a part of what makes this city great and is so deeply ingrained into the very bedrock the city was built on and woven into the fabric of everyday life. Ghosts, Zombies, Voodoo, the Loa. Hell, even Vampires and Shifters. They all call this city home, and they have all been represented in the stories and tales passed down through the generations of this city’s residence. Hell, all one has to do is wander through a cemetery after dark to see the legacy and the mark our Preternatural beliefs have left on the city.

For the rest of the country, Addison v. Clarke marked a huge change for people, as the veil that separated the world of the living from that of the dead was cast open. But for us? None of us were surprised with the Preternatural world came shamblin’ forth into the light, so to speak. We had always had Voodoo Priestesses, Psychics, Witches, and Animators setting up shop in the Quarter. An’ now? Now we have Vampire Strip Clubs, a self-proclaimed Master of the City, a Werewolf Bar, and a King of the Rats, of all things.

Course the rest of the Louisiana ain’t as civilized. Most Parishes still have some form of Varmint Laws on the books, and the killing of Shifters isn’t as frowned upon outside the big cities, nor are these deaths always investigated.

But don’t let that stop you from comin’ to visit… Just be careful of those Voodoo Priestesses. Cross one, and you may wind up serving them even after death…



Current Events: The New Orleans RPIT has been called in to investigate the possible death of a Shifter, whose body was hung on a billboard for the Howling Wolf just outside the city limits of New Orleans with a warning that all animals must die. While the investigation is still brand new, the Lead Detective has already learned of two other deaths which have occurred outside the city limits inside Orleans Parish, and which are being ignored by the Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office.

It appears someone is targeting shifters, torturing them, then executing them and leaving their bodies as warnings.



Crimson Kiss is a free-form story-driven role-playing game set in the Anita Blake universe. The setting of New Orleans, with its rich cultural history and diversity, as well as its familiarity with the supernatural, makes it an idea location for a Universe where Vampires, Shifters, and the occasional Fae make their homes right alongside Humans. Using elements from the Anita Blake books, real life events, and the imagination of your GM staff, our hope is to create an immersive storytelling experience.

Crimson Kiss is a relatively new game, looking for players and characters of all types. Currently, Vampires are the only forbidden character type, but players looking to play Shifters, Witches, Vaudun practitioners, or regular Humans are encouraged to apply.

Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

The New Orleans Special Investigations Division, Preternatural Crimes Taskforce is continuing to investigate the body of an unidentified male Shifter found hanging from the billboard for The Howling Wolf early Saturday morning. The body is currently in the care of Orleans Parish's Chief Forensic Medical Examiner, Jonas Thibadaeux. At this time the body is unclaimed, and will be remanded to the state after three days if no one steps forward to claim the body. The investigation so far has revealed the possibility of a serial killer operating outside the City of New Orleans and targeting Shifters. Information provided by ME Jonas Thibadaeux to the NOPD RPIT indicated that two other bodies were collected by the ME's office over the course of the last week, and that the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office is either intentionally ignoring or covering up the crimes.

It should be noted that while New Orleans abolished it varmint laws shortly after the State of Montana changed its laws, following the deaths of three humans who were suspected of being Shifters, much of Louisiana still has varmint laws on the books.

A second unidentified body of a young woman was discovered late in the morning seated on a bench inside the St. Anthony Garden behind the St.Louis Cathedral. No preternatural crime is suspected at this time, and the case is being handled by NOPD Homicide. The body is currently in the care of Orleans Parish's Chief Forensic Medical Examiner, Jonas Thibadaeux.



The New Orleans Pack now has an Ulfric, but could use some more Wolves to fill its ranks. Additionally, characters of other Shifter varieties are still welcome. Please submit an RTJ to discuss your character concept with the GM Staff.

The unexpected arrival of the Ulfric of an outside Pack has helped RPIT identify the bodies of the slain Wolves, but with the local Pack still reeling from the recent (only two month old) death of their former Ulfric at the hands of the local Cougar Pride, and the rise of the local Packs Lupa to the position of Ulfric, not is not the time for outsiders.



The Wolves not have an Ulfric and a Bolverk, still looking for more Wolves to flesh out the Pack.

Still looking for more players, specifically Wolves and Mountain Lions (Cougars) to flesh out the two main shifter groups currently operating in New Orleans. However, no Shifter concept will be turned away.

More obscure character types, such as Lamia, Naga, etc., are not allowed at this time.

Lots of developments taking place with the Wolves, Alphas still needed as the New Orleans Pack rebuilds. A Cougar has also disappeared, is this the next victim for a killer that is hunting Shifters? And what kind of Human or Monster has the power, and the courage, to hunt people who can lift and tear through cars?

If you’re curious, come find out.

Still seeking Wolves and Cougars.

Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

As our first story Arc draws to a close, a lot has changed in the political landscape for the Wolves. A change in Pack Leadership brings a chance for the Lapli Sakre (Sacred Rain) Pack to rebuilt and heal from years of corruption that spread through the heart of the Pack, and the recent loss of several members of the Pack. The storm that has been building for the last two days has crashed over the city and broken, washing away blood and ash... And as the skies begin to clear, two Packs merge...

The individual who has been targeting and hunting Shifter's has been identified and shot by RPIT, but the events have left one member of the Regional Preternatural Investigations Taskforce with a rough road ahead, as she must now fight to keep her job.

But the sultry sound of Jazz and Blues music still plays in New Orleans. And from the balcony of the Riverboat Crimson Kiss the Master of the City watches as another day turns to night...



The New Orleans Pack is looking for more Wolves to fill out its ranks. Pack members will fall into one of three categories, those who were a part of the Pack during the bloody years, members who were park of the Stone Cairn Pack that has joined with Lapli Sakre, and those who have come in after the recent events. Please make sure you work with GMs to chose a back story that works best for you and the type of character you want to play.

Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

It's Halloween in New Orleans, and the city is preparing for a night of Undead revelry. The Master of the City, Constantne L'Roman, is famous for the costume balls that he puts on each year, and this year should be no exception. But three bodies found in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, the victims of an apparently botched zombie raising, threaten to put a damper on the evenings events.

In a world full of Vampires and Shifters, in a city full of Voodoo Queens, anything can go wrong.

Come join the fun in New Orleans, and find out what Crimson Kiss is all about.



After a short hiatus in recruiting, we are opening the game up once more to new players. We are specifically looking for individuals looking to play members of the Wolf Pack or Cougar Pride, as well as Witches, and RPIT Detectives.

If you have any questions, shoot our DM Staff a question and ask.

Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

En explosion rocks the night, thrusting the city of New Orleans in to chaos. The target of the explosion, the Crimson Kiss, a riverboat casino and bordello owned and operated by Adrian Lucrece, one of the cities Master Vampires. Is this an attack against all Vampires? Or was it targeted specifically against Lucrece?

And what does the explosion have to do with the three ghoul victims found the day before?

As Halloween fast approaches, the New Orleans Preternatural Crimes Investigations Taskforce struggles to piece together the clues...



Beneath the pale light of the full moon, Wolves fight for dominance, as the Stone Cairn Pack finally defines who will be its Freki and Geri, and a proclamation is made about the Pack's new Lupa. Have the Wolves of Stone Cairn finally put their bloody past behind them?

But even as the new Geri and Freki rise to take their place next to Ulfric Keen, a scream pierces the night. The Animal Servant of Adrian Lucrece, feeling the pain of her Master's wounds. What does the attack on the Vampires portend for a Pack that is struggling to rebuild...



Deep in the thick swamps of the Bayou Sauvage National Wildlife Area, the Bayou Sauvage Pride welcomes a new, albeit reluctant member. But this new Cougar has gotten herself in for more than she bargained for, when a spirit shows her a series of visions of the past, and hints at a dark future. But what does these visions have to do with Maggie? And with the Rey's daughter, Alyssa?

Dark fores stir in New Orleans...



Opening recruitment again. Looking for Wolves, Cougars, Witches, and Humans.

If you have any questions, shoot our DM Staff a question and ask.

Crimson Kiss - An Anitaverse RPG

As the sun sets, the Stone Cairn Pack turns their attentions back to the greater preternatural community. The explosion at the Crimson Kiss will have consequences for the Pack, they all know it, but they don't yet know what those consequences are. Was this an attack on the Vampires? Or was this attack the start of something more?

They also have a new wolf to deal with. Not just new to the city of New Orleans, but new to being a Shifter as well.



The Kiss is on lockdown as the sun sets, the Master of the City, Constantine L'Roman, does not want to take any chances with the safety of his Vampires, but has vowed to find those responsible and see that Justice is delivered. But there are other problems that concern Constantine as well. The Harlequin have delivered a Mask. They are watching. What has drawn the secretive police of the Vampire Council to New Orleans is not yet known. And what is unknown worries Constantine... For a Vampire of his age, paranoia is can be a dangerous thing...



The New Orleans Preternatural Crimes Investigation Taskforce has lost one of their best officers to a decision that may have saved lives. In the heat of the moment, Officer Sylvie Levesque allowed an injured Adrian Lucrece to feed on her, preventing the Vampire from going feral, but the decision has cost her the confidence of her Captain, and in a fit of anger and frustration, Sylvia Levesque has resigned from the force.



Dark forces continue to stir, and Halloween continues to approach.



Opening recruitment against after the Christmas and New Years holidays. Looking for Wolves, Cougars, and Humans (Witches/RPIT) only at this time.
